[darkstar22]

i am new to breeding guppies i only have 2 (1 male and 1 female) in a 10 gallon tank that has already been cycled blah blah... just wondering if there are any tricks or helpfull things i can do to make sure i dont screw up! please reply!!!!

Get aleast one more female or else the one you have will get to stressed and die.

 

[darkstar22]

alright... should i get the same type of female that i already have in my tank? or go for something a little different... and the fish store is closed for the night so she will be okay for one day right??? because the male was just brought into the tank this afternoon....

 

[ScoutCarcer]

You might want to put either the male or female in a different tank if you cant do that they should be ok for the night.

i have a tank divider should i just use that as a temporary job? and when i get another female should it be similar to the one i already have or does that really matter? i just want the offspring to look cool (so to speak)

 

[ScoutCarcer]

The divider should work. I think you should get a female that if you take her color and your males color and mix them together it would look cool

 

[darkstar22]

alright.....

my female i have right now is yellow bodied with an orange translucentblue smaller rounded tail.

my male looks really cool... tranlucent normal colored body with half of it yellow/black zebra style... and the other half is flourecent blue/purple.... histail is smaller and rounded... and that color of tail is orange abnd black almost like a fire!!! so yeah
